Use your GHL API key with the scope emails/builder.readonly to securely connect Blogs API to the Zapier App Connector. Keep keys private and rotate regularly.
Connect via OAuth 2.0 or API token in Zapier, then authorize the Blogs API in the connected app. Grant the minimum required permissions to keep data safe.
Key endpoints include: GET emails/builder, GET emails/schedule, POST emails/builder, POST /emails/builder/data, PUT /blogs/posts/:postId, POST /blogs/posts, GET /blogs/posts/url-slug-exists, GET /blogs/categories, GET /blogs/authors, GET /blogs/posts, and POST /blogs/posts (for creating content).
Trigger: A new blog post is created in Blogs API, then Zapier pushes it to GHL to publish or schedule.
Actions: Create or update a blog post in GHL; optionally trigger related email campaigns via emails/builder.
POST /blogs/posts
title, content, slug, author_id, tags
Trigger: A new or updated email template in Blogs API (emails/builder) is saved, syncing to Zapier.
Actions: Create or update email templates in GHL emails/builder.
POST emails/builder
template_id, subject, content, locationId
Trigger: A blog post is published or updated, schedule tasks and companion campaigns via Zapier.
Actions: Schedule posts in Blogs API, trigger email campaigns and update related records.
POST /emails/schedule
schedule_time, postId, recipient_list
Build complex automation flows without writing code.
Keep content and campaigns in sync using a single interface.

Learn the core terms, data elements, and processes you’ll encounter when integrating Blogs API with the Zapier App Connector to work with GHL.
Application Programming Interface: a defined way for two apps to talk to each other and exchange data.
A URL-friendly string used to identify a blog post, such as my-post-title.
A secure authorization framework that lets apps access data with user consent.
A specific URL in an API that performs a function, e.g., GET /blogs/posts.
Automatically publish a weekly digest to your GHL email campaigns when a blog post is published.
Push blog content to social, email, and CRM channels via Zapier.
Sync author bios and avatars from Blogs API to GHL.
In Zapier, authorize the Blogs API connection and ensure proper scope (emails/builder.readonly) is granted.
Select endpoints and map fields like title, content, and slug to your templates and posts.
Run tests, validate data flow, and enable automated workflows between Blogs API and GHL through Zapier.
No heavy coding is required. Zapier acts as the bridge and lets you build triggers and actions using friendly, guided steps. If you know basic field mapping, you can set up end-to-end workflows in minutes. For advanced flows, you can still customize with filters and multi-step paths.
The Blogs API exposes endpoints for reading templates, posts, categories, authors, and scheduling. You can pull available endpoints in the integration catalog and map fields between Blogs API and GHL. Use GET endpoints to retrieve data and POST/PUT to create or update records.
Zapier encrypts connections and supports OAuth tokens, API keys, and webhook handlers. Always store credentials securely and use the least privilege permissions. Enable logging and monitor activity for compliance.
Yes. You can schedule posts or emails in batches or set up multi-step automations to publish to several entities. The app connector supports routing to multiple templates and lists.
Real-time syncing is possible with webhooks and polling configurations. In practice, expect near real-time delivery for most actions, with occasional latency depending on API rate limits.
Common scopes include emails/builder.readonly for reading templates, blogs/post.write for creating posts, and blogs/check-slug.readonly for slug validation. Always use the minimum scopes needed.
Documentation for Blogs API and the Zapier App Connector is available in your developer portal and the Zapier app directory. Look for API reference, authentication, and endpoint guides.
